# Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Fiction

Le Lambda Literary Award for Lesbian Fiction (Prix Lambda Literary de fiction lesbienne) est un prix littéraire annuel remis par la Lambda Literary Foundation (en) pour une œuvre de fiction sur le thème du lesbianisme. Comme le prix s'intéresse à la place du thème dans l'ouvrage, non pas la sexualité ou au genre de l'écrivain, les hommes et les femmes hétérosexuels peuvent également être nommés ou gagner le prix.
